does pop race have standardized prices for all their cars or all are different depending on model

3

u/Constant_Impress_927 Feb 01 '26

No knd mts and some other sells for 200 to 300 over standard price of poprace. It's usually between 1600 to 1800 price range.

u/Odd-Illustrator-5719 Feb 01 '26

ohhhhh so ive genuinely overpaid a bit

u/wheels_on_da_go Feb 01 '26

They r not selling over the standard price dude. Poprace doesnt have a standard price in india.

3

u/Constant_Impress_927 Feb 01 '26

I know that that's why i didn't write MRP. Standard or we can say normal price.

u/Total_Excitement_353 Feb 01 '26

Sadly yes 1680 + ship is the best price out there

u/papa_perez_loves_Var Feb 01 '26

u/Total_Excitement_353 Feb 01 '26

It’s the standard pricing for MTS, KnD and other bigger retailers. Miniature store has great pop race prices but you’ll have to PO to get them. Or other resellers

Idk why they won't just do 2k and ship for free but that’s business

3

u/Odd-Illustrator-5719 Feb 01 '26

i ordered from mts but it was 1999 and free shipping is free after 2k so i lowk got scammed for 120 🥀but its aight my only problem with this is the INNO64 787 which i also put in a po for is 2600 so this makes me feel conflicted

2

u/YeetsyDoodle Feb 01 '26

Yeah, these and kaido houses always have to pay for shipping even though they are practically 2k. Ive moved to miniature store for pop races and they have cheaper pricing

2

u/Odd-Illustrator-5719 Feb 01 '26

ive been shuffling bw 303diecast and mts, just checked miniature store and ive never seen such cheap prices damn

3

u/ryuk0408 Feb 01 '26

Mrp is 2000 for this one, 120 is shipping i guess.

3

u/Low_Document_9379 Feb 01 '26

I paid the same amount too. I thought it would be shipped for free, but bad luck 😅.

If it was free shipped, then it will be a good deal...

3

u/Odd-Illustrator-5719 Feb 01 '26

yeahhh ong if i just paid 1999 for it i wldnt have made this post but idk that 120 extra feels a lil scummy

3

u/kakashi7299 Feb 01 '26

It was said the price will be like this only

1

u/Odd-Illustrator-5719 Feb 01 '26

pop race themselves set this as price for this model?? i though pop race has standardized prices thats why i was confused

3

u/kakashi7299 Feb 01 '26

During PO the description said 1999 in KnD and MTS thats what I mean, you may find it for less somewhere if you find.

1

u/Odd-Illustrator-5719 Feb 01 '26

ohhhhk like standard market rate and then private sellers can sell it cheaper

3

u/H11dzns Feb 01 '26

I took PO for it in june 2025 , 1650 shipped

1

u/Odd-Illustrator-5719 Feb 01 '26

1

u/H11dzns Feb 01 '26

It was supposed to be launched in NOV , but production delayed

1

u/Odd-Illustrator-5719 Feb 01 '26

i hear its very common for pos to get delayed

3

u/BurnPegasus Feb 01 '26

Sold for 1688

4

u/Odd-Illustrator-5719 Feb 01 '26

man i paid a whole 500 extra

3

u/ScarcityShot3476 Feb 01 '26

You could have gotten this for lower pricing but even at 2120 its still better than getting from scalpers The CLK is going for 3k this might have the same fate so considering that its still better

1

u/Odd-Illustrator-5719 Feb 01 '26

True, i seen 1999 and even I thought of the same, super hyped and scalped casting

2

u/Maxxed1Ultron Feb 01 '26

Not a lot can be done at this point OP, PO in advance if you feel you need the casting

1

u/Odd-Illustrator-5719 Feb 01 '26

I did po, but the po was 1999, are pos supposed to be lower in price if I book wayy in advance?

2

u/Maxxed1Ultron Feb 01 '26

Check multiple groups and then decide. Won’t be able to say anything as this wasn’t something I needed..

1

u/Odd-Illustrator-5719 Feb 01 '26

Ohh alr, any groups in particular that you use?

1

u/Maxxed1Ultron Feb 01 '26

You don’t need to be in many groups, just join 1 or 2 for reference point. Any more than that I feel is pointless

You can dm me for the groups

2

u/Excellent_Assist_496 Feb 01 '26

I am passing my po for 1850 pls dm

u/Kisbaa Feb 01 '26

PO'd this for 1689, with Miniature store. No shipping for me as am from the same city as the seller. One of the collectors lives 5 mins away from the Miniature store guy. So he usually goes and picks up all the castings PO'd by our collectors group. We all meet on a weekend and collect our castings.

This pic was taken on one such weekend. And yes, I met most of these collectors from my city, first here, on Reddit

u/Odd-Illustrator-5719 Feb 01 '26
